KT Tunstall - Dear Shadow lyrics
[KT Tunstall - Dear Shadow lyrics]
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
The first day that we met
I saw you out of the corner of my eye
I was five
You're still the thumb that I'm under
You're still the thumb that I'm under
Oh, I hid you away, pushing you down
You left me caught between a
Light and a dark place
I'm going to ground (Oh oh oh oh, oh oh)
When out looking for love, three is a crowd
We'd always lose our way between the black
('Ween the black) and the
Grey (And the grey)
I've been lonely
Keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah
You'rе holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking evеry shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
Yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo
Yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo
On the wall, I was ten
You were more than a feeling
By my side, unwanted
The sun would see you come creeping
Made of fear, I was strong
There's no shame to have you
Here where you belong
I've been lonely
Keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah
You're holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la (yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo)
La la la la la la (yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo)
La la la la la (yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo)
I've been lonely
Keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
I see it's only me needing
You back there behind me in my soul
I feel like maybe we'll be friends
But you're holding me back, yeah
You're holding me back
And I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again
The first day that we met
I saw you out of the corner of my eye
I was five
You're still the thumb that I'm under
You're still the thumb that I'm under
Oh, I hid you away, pushing you down
You left me caught between a
Light and a dark place
I'm going to ground (Oh oh oh oh, oh oh)
When out looking for love, three is a crowd
We'd always lose our way between the black
('Ween the black) and the
Grey (And the grey)
I've been lonely
Keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah
You'rе holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking evеry shade of who I am
Maybe we could start again?
Yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo
Yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo
On the wall, I was ten
You were more than a feeling

Made of fear, I was strong

Keeping you back there behind me
Got this swollen feeling we could make amends
But you're holding me back, yeah
You're holding me back
I just want to run, dear shadow
Walking every shade of who I am

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la (yeah yo yeah oh, yo yo)
